This one went well for us we thought we would be nowhere as we finished day
one due to a huge navigational blunder in the mist that cost us 1/2 an
hour. We had the fastest split for control 4 and one of the fastest
finish splits. Finished day one 5th and second mixed team out of 82
competitors, with the slowest team taking twice as long as us.
The start of day two was very nerve racking for me there was just a chance
we could win over all and first mixed team was also within our reach. In
the end after I had given everything including a fast steep descent racing
head to head with what turned out to be the second mixed team. We
finished day 2, 9th over all, and 3rd mixed team. There was no more we
could have done on day 2 our navigation was good and I worked very hard.
I for one was very pleased with the result.
Yes, I actually did some running in that rucksac
